2021/22 Annual Report | Pūrongo-ā-Tau
We love where we live and we’re committed to making the Waikato even better, both for those here now and the generations to come.
You can see the progress we’re making in our 2021/22 Annual Report | Pūrongo-ā-Tau. This is our statement to the community about our finances and our service performance from 1 July to 30 June.
Councillors adopted the 2021/22 Annual Report and Annual Report Summary on 29 June 2023. Our councillors were particularly mindful of the financial pressures that continued to mount for our communities, driven by forces beyond the control of local government, but remained committed to investing for the future, particularly in essential areas like regional resilience.
This annual report was originally due to be published no later than 31 December 2022, in line with the statutory time frame set out in the Local Government Act 2002. However, this timeframe was not met because Audit New Zealand (our external auditors) were unable to complete the audit within this timeframe. This was due to an national auditor shortage and the consequential effects of COVID-19, including lockdowns.
